Visa to Algeria

Algeria is a large country in North Africa with a rich history and culture. To enter Algeria, citizens of most countries need to obtain a visa in advance. The visa regime of the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria regulates the conditions of entry into the country for foreign citizens. Most travelers need to obtain a visa at the embassy or consulate of Algeria.

Currently, visa-free regime applies to citizens of 7 African countries for up to 90 days. Israeli citizens are not allowed to enter Algeria, even in transit. Other foreign citizens need a visa regardless of the purpose of travel - tourism, work, study, transit. The visa is issued only in the form of a paper sticker in the passport. The validity period depends on the type of visa.

According to the official rules, citizens of 235 countries are obliged to obtain a tourist visa regardless of the period of stay in the country. This requires personal appearance at the consulate, interview and submission of supporting documents.
